The Foreign Ministers' Troika of the European Union and Armenia welcome
the successful outcome of consultations on the European Neighborhood
Policy Action Plan, started in November 2005.
In connection with the visit of the Foreign Ministers' troika of
the European Union to Armenia, the two sides note that an agreement
in principle has been reached on a final ENP Action Plan text. The
necessary steps can now be taken in order to prepare the formal
adoption of the Action Plan at the next EU-Armenia Cooperation Council,
to be held on the 14th of November in Brussels.
The European Neighbourhood Policy Action Plan is a significant step
towards an increasingly close relationship between the EU and Armenia,
going beyond co-operation, to involve a significant measure of economic
integration and deepening of political co-operation. The European Union
and Armenia are determined to make use of this occasion to enhance
their relations and to promote prosperity, stability, and security.
The Finnish EU Presidency - H.E. Mr. Erkki Tuomioja
The European Commission - H.E. Mr. Torben Holtze
The Government of Armenia - H.E. Mr. Vartan Oskanian
